Aaryn, who's been turned away and quiet, asks if Kaitlin and GM liked her speech. GM is going to grab "all the reds" so Howard can't be on their team.

Elissa tells Amanda she said "'mah dude' Jeremy" in her goodbye message and imitates herself. Amanda says her first three weeks were more difficult than Elissa's because they had to flip the House. Elissa says McCrae looked 'too intelligent' to be the living in the basement Baron. Amanda is tired of people talking and wants "silence" for a couple of hours. Elissa wants to do something fun.

Helen says Aaryn will take "us" out and Elissa agrees. Elissa will sleep with Helen since there's no sheets on the bed. Elissa thinks they've made such bold moves that it's stupid to put GM up and get her out. She brings entertainment and she'd rather have her around than Aaryn acting like she's on the Bad Girl's Club. They want to talk to Andy tomorrow. Helen thinks someone is coming and they break up the conversation. Several minutes later Howard walks thru and they talk about Howard's Coke that burst. He asks Elissa if she's ok.

Candice tells Howard not to listen to Spencer, that Elissa likes Howard and loves Candice and isn't thinking about Howard. Howard is worried Judd will be influenced and wants to stay on Elissa's good side. Howard asks Candice to trust him. Candice says there's only three options, and lists the widows. Howard hopes Elissa doesn't target him because of Jeremy. Candice warns Howard that people are worried about Spencer and she can't protect him and Spencer without looking shady herself. Howard is worried he'll go on the block. Candice tells him again that Elissa isn't going to put him up, if she wanted to she could have put him up last week instead of Spencer. Candice tells how Amanda has been hiding the Coke from GM. Howard: "So don't hang with Aaryn and don't drink Coke." Candice relays how she told Elissa that that she'd offered GM an olive branch. They talked about Aaryn's racism but Candice is more insulted by Jeremy's lying. Candice says after her talk with Elissa last night, Elissa understands why she and Helen talk to Aaryn while Elissa chooses not to. and FISH
